A kinetic study of saccharification of jackfruit residue (Artocarpus heterophyllus). Chemical and enzymatic pathway

: In this work, the obtaining of sugars from the lignocellulosic residue of the jackfruit fruit was proposed. ( Artocarpus heterophyllus ). Acid hydrolyses were carried out with sulfuric acid (H2SO4) at 90 and 105°C for concentrations of 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10%; enzymatic hydrolyses were performed with cellulases and hemicellulases ( Aspergillus niger ) con R s/l of 7.5, 10 and 12.5% at 30 and 40°C. The highest production of reducing sugars in acid hydrolysis was 10.012 g/L in 180 min, 10% and 105°C. In enzymatic hydrolysis, the maximum production was 30.4436 g/L in 12 h with a R s/l =7.5% to 40°C.
